Well I made it and this is how it turned out:
Sadly most of it ended up in the garbage. There was such a strong taste of vegetable oil that it completely ruined the rest of the ingredients. It want to put out there that my vegetable oil was old, so that may have been part of the problem, but it also lacked a certain sweetness. I decided that this was definitely a fixable recipe, so in an attempt to fix it (and still remain partially healthy) I changed the vegetable oil to coconut oil and added honey:
GLAZED APPLE CINNAMON OATMEAL BREAD

- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 cup sugar
- 2/3 cup coconut oil

Directions:
Mix all of the Dry mixture ingredients together and let them rest. Pre-heat oven to 350. Then mix all of the wet ingredients. Slowly combine wet ingredients in the dry mixture. Mix until both are properly combined. Do not over mix. Put in a greased bread pan and bake for approx 45 mins. Take out and cool.
This is what the new loaf looked like:

I forgot to take a picture of it glazed before I took a bite. Oops!

Testing the fix. All in all way better.
Time to dig in! |
Consensus:
I liked my version so much better. Will I make it again? Probably not. It was super moist and filling, but it was not sweet enough for my tastes. However, this recipe would be good if you think banana bread is too sweet.
Overall this was a good Pinterst fix :)
